Chapter 167: Thank you for your help.
Fang Lingchu asked excitedly: [And then, did her parents agree? ]
The system looked at the excited host and spoke more and more excitedly.
How could they possibly agree? Her parents disagreed. After all, the musician was poor and had nothing to offer except for playing a good piece of music and writing a good poem.
They can't even do the basic work of supporting their family.
Zhuo Ruoshi's parents did not agree, but so what? The man was in love with the woman, and there was nothing they could do to stop them.
Zhuo Ruoshi was locked up by her parents. The zither player bribed the servants of the Zhuo family and asked Zhuo Ruoshi if she was interested in him.
Of course there is Zhuo Ruoshi, after all, the musician likes her very much.
When Zhuo Ruoshi saw what the musician gave her, she responded immediately.
She likes him very much, very much, and she would go through fire and water for him.
But what if my parents don’t agree?
Fang Lingchu had a bad feeling.
[She wouldn't have eloped with that zither player, would she?]
When the system heard Fang Lingchu, it spun around happily.
[The host is really too smart.]
That’s right, they eloped.
In Zhuo Ruoshi's opinion, since the two people loved each other so much, it didn't matter if the zither player was poor. She had a lot of money anyway, and a little money could allow them to live a rich life.
As a rich lady, Zhuo Ruoshi took off her pearl hairpins, cooked soup, and took care of the daily life of the zither player for the sake of her lover.
After the musician got married, he could no longer go to that kind of place to make money, so the two of them relied on Zhuo Ruoshi to pawn her jewelry to make a living.
Later, her father couldn't bear it anymore, so he gave them money and people, and the two of them lived a rich life again.
After this incident, the zither player loved Zhuo Ruoshi even more. He found that she not only had a graceful figure and a beautiful face, but also had wisdom that no man could match.
He also liked her style of doing things.
That night, he played the piano again, originally wanting his wife to love him more, but he didn't expect that not only did he fail to touch Zhuo Ruoshi's heart, but he also touched the heart of the eldest prince.
At this time, the Dragon Kingdom had almost entered a period of rebellion, and the eldest prince was particularly fond of the zither player's "Feng Qiu Huang".
After he became emperor, he asked the zither player to meet him. When the zither player met him, he presented the "Fanglin Fu" written by Zhuoruoshi, and asked the eldest prince to directly appoint him as a palace attendant.
From then on, he rose rapidly to the top and became the most famous person.
Fang Lingchu couldn't help but ask after hearing this: "What about Zhuo Ruoshi? Didn't she go with us?"
The system shook its head and said: [Zhuo Ruoshi did not go, she stayed. The two could only communicate through family letters, and several years passed like this.
Apart from needing Zhuo Ruoshi's help in dealing with unexpected situations, the two of them had less and less to talk about.
The family letter ended with just one or two sentences, and then the musician planned to marry a concubine for the sake of his future.
But what Zhuo Ruoshi wanted was a lifelong love with one partner, but the zither player broke his promise. In the end, Zhuo Ruoshi wrote a farewell letter herself, hoping that her husband would come back.
Unexpectedly, what I received was a letter of divorce and the news that he was planning to remarry.
Zhuo Ruoshi died of anger. She was less than 35 years old at that time and left behind a son and a daughter for the zither player.
Unfortunately, the musician never returned home, and the two children died during the turbulent times.
After the system finished speaking, everyone fell silent.
Fang Lingchu thought for a while and said: [I remember a saying that is very suitable for now: A virtuous wife helps me to achieve my ambitions, and when I am successful, I kill the one I love first. When I am poor, I am afraid that my wife will run away, and when I am rich, I dislike my wife for being old. One day, when I have power in my hands, I will step on my wife's head to find a new one.
It is more common to see poor men with noble women around them, but it is rare to see rich men with bad wives.
In this era of inequality, I don’t know how to evaluate them. I can only say that it is better to love freedom for yourself and fight for a lifetime than to gamble a man’s sincerity for an illusory love.
If she didn't have the opportunity before and now that she has the opportunity, but she still wants to eat coarse food with that musician, I can only say that it would be better for me not to complete this task, or to complete it in a way that deceives you and makes it look like I have completed it. Then I won't care how she wants to leave.
After all, good words can hardly persuade a damned ghost.]
Although I can still hear some discussion.
Everyone fell silent when they heard Fang Lingchu's words.
Some of them fell in love with those poor scholars, broke up with their families and rebelled, but failed to succeed.
Are they really wrong?
But I’m not as happy as before.
Especially Zhuo Ruoshi, she was a little surprised when she heard her own ending.
After all, she felt that she was a very free and easy person. How could she die just because of a man's betrayal?
The other noble ladies present were people who had seen a lot of the intrigue and scheme.
After listening to this story, they all felt that the musician must have been seducing on purpose.
Especially Miss Qin, there was more or less some contempt for Zhuo Ruoshi in her eyes.
She hated women who gave up their family for love the most.
Fang Lingchu thought for a while and asked, "Guagua, this isn't some conspiracy theory! Why do I feel like this musician was drawn to Zhuo Ruoshi's talent from the very beginning?"
The system directly exploded electronic fireworks.
[The host is so smart!]
That’s right, this musician wanted a rich life from the very beginning, after all, the Zhuo family is rich!
All those things about understanding her and loving her are actually lies. It’s all for money.
After discovering Zhuo Ruoshi's talent, he often tricked her into writing more poems, and then he would sell them in his own name or tell his friends about it.
Later, the eldest prince went to listen to his music because he had heard of his reputation. You know what happened next. The musician married the daughter of a minister close to the eldest prince and immediately rose to prominence.
Fang Lingchu: I don’t know how to put it, I feel like I ate something bad.
Other ladies: They just know it’s like this, no love, everything is just for profit.
Zhuo Ruoshi: How is that possible? Lin Lang obviously loves her! He said she was the most special woman he knew.
He didn't mind that she was married. As long as she was married, he didn't like her no matter what she looked like.
How could it be that everything is just for money!
She didn't believe it. Zhuo Ruoshi really wanted to go back and ask the man who said he loved her and missed her every day why he lied to her.
If Fang Lingchu knew what Zhuo Ruoshi was thinking, he would definitely say: Because you are stupid. Who wouldn’t like a stupid person with lots of money?
After thinking for a while, Fang Lingchu finally came up with an excuse: [After all, they have never left home in their lives, and the only thing they have seen of the world is the storybooks.
It is normal to want love, but only equal love can last. No matter how much you love those who are inferior and selfish, you will not be able to be together in the end.
Love is good, but in this era, except for those who are well-matched, other loves are generally for profit.
There are more choices now, and I hope many girls can go out and see that it is not raining outside.
When the ladies heard this, they all smiled at each other.
